First, let’s start off with a little exercise. An exercise we know the occasional NHL general manager does when killing time. Let’s head on over to tankathon.com, the great lottery simulator and time waster.

On Saturday, the Maple Leafs beat the Oilers to end a nice little four-game win streak for Edmonton. The loss meant that the Oilers woke up on Monday with the eighth-best shot at winning the 2019 NHL Draft lottery and the shot at drafting Jack Hughes, the game’s next star forward.

That loss, according to tankathon, gave them a six percent chance at the No. 1 pick. So hold on, let’s see how many clicks of the simulator it takes to get the Oilers the No. 1 overall pick.

Be right back.

Two.

Honestly. It took two simulations to land the Oilers the No. 1 pick. And really, should we expect anything less this spring when it comes time for the NHL to select the draft order?
